Is it my imagination or......
« on: 15 August 2007, 22:07:43 »
Not sure if its my imagination, but I changed my crank sensor a couple of weeks ago (was causing intermittent failure to start), and I'm sure that the car now feels a bit quicker on acceleration and fuel consumption seems slightly better. Is it possible that a marginally failing crank sensor could have effected these?  :-/

Possible I guess, can't see how, but you're not the first to say that.

Mine is defiantly better, now i have a good alternator, giving a good voltage out.

 Sensors now must be getting the right voltages.
